"Yeah, I'm almost done getting ready. Hm, uh-huh, see you and the others in fifteen then? The usual place right? Yeah sure okay, see ya!" Taehyung hung the call and threw his phone on the couch before picking up a pair of tight black leather pants and inspecting them for a moment.

Just then a knock was heard at his door, followed by a gentle 'hello?'. He hummed a 'come in', a smile making its way onto his lips when he sees Jisoo, his dearest sister in law welcoming him with a huge smile.

"How are you TaeTae?" She beamed, bringing the boy into a bear hug which the boy gladly returned, "Sorry i couldn't greet you earlier, Jennie and I had gone down to the bakery for the bread basket bowl for lunch. We had no idea you were gonna be coming in earlier than expected. You surprised us!"

"Well that was the plan but Namjoon hyung had to thwart it for me." Taehyung whined getting an endeared chuckle in return which made him whine some more. His Jisoo noona was always so loving to him. "Where's Jennie Noona?"

"Here!" The said woman announced, turning their heads towards her direction as she swayed in with her usual swag,"What's up big boy? Getting ready for somewhere?"

"Hello to you too Noona," Taehyung rolled his eyes playfully before throwing away his jeans and picking up another one with many rips and holes,"'m going out for a welcome party with friends, what do you think about these?" He said waving around the new pair, open to their suggestions. His sisters' in law (and to be) had always been a great help with fashion advice, what with the other men in the house being too manly for his liking.

"Yeah I like this one, go for some fishnets underneath them and..." Jennie sauntered over to his walk in closet, humming for a minute or two before emerging out with a bright shimmery top in her hand," Couple it with these and you're good to go!"

"Oh thank you noona! You're the best!" Taehyung gushed, giggling with his sisters before rushing into his closet to get dressed. A few moments later he returned and posed in front of the awaiting females, giggling all the way as they showered him with praises and hollers.

The digital clock on his bedside table pinged, indicating it was time to leave and he bid a goodbye to the ladies, quickly shimming into a pair of boots and grabbing his wallet and keys. He made his way downstairs before bumping into his oldest hyung who was on his way to the first floor.

"Whoa whoa! Where are you off to lil bro?" Jin asked him, folding his hands across his chest and narrowing his eyes at the youngest.

"To the club, with friends," Taehyung singsonged, trying to get around the taller and leave when he felt a hand on his shoulder, stopping him.

"Your friends? You mean the ones who always get themselves in troub-"

"No no! Hyung," Taehyung quickly interrupted the older, shaking his head innocently at his brother, "These ones are different i swear-"

"Is Orry going to be there too?" Jin questioned pensively and Taehyung had to shut his mouth at that one, not finding it in himself to lie.

His silence only confirmed the elder's suspicion, which made Seokjin sigh in return.

"Taehyung..."

"Hyung, i swear we'll not get into any trouble this time. I'm not even planning to drink that much and--"

"You know what happened last time right? And how it became the reason you had to be sent to New York to study? Dad was not happy about what happened, Taehyung." Jin reminded the boy who suddenly looked very guilty and sad.
